It’s the most efficient gyratory crusher on the market, designed to
help your mining operation reach its full potential.
Are you doing more work for the same yield? Your energy bill is
higher. Your maintenance costs are higher. Your health and safety
risks are higher. That’s the reality of crushing low-grade
ore.
At the same time there is pressure to reduce the environmental
impact of your operation. Bring down energy consumption. Increase
efficiency. And of course, always, protect your personnel from
harm.
It’s time for next-generation crushing We can’t change the nature
of your deposit. But we can change the way you crush it. Our Mark V
Top Service Gyratory Crusher – the TSUV – brings you:
The lowest cost per tonne of product processed
Crushing just got harder. With low grade ore deposits requiring
higher power and higher throughputs than ever before, you need a
crusher
that can take the impact – without compromising on efficiency. With
more power and greater capacity, the digitally-enabled TSUV
is the world’s most OPEX and CAPEX-efficient gyratory
crusher.
Ultra-heavy duty
Key benefits
With mining companies increasingly turning to low-grade deposits to
meet market demand, the pressure
on crushing operations is greater than ever.
It’s a hard rock life

4 5TSUV Gyratory Crushers TSUV Gyratory Crushers
Safety, reliability and performance The TSUV is our latest
generation gyratory crusher, following the successful rollout of
our Top Service (TS) and Top Service Ultra Duty (TSU) models. The
unique design emphasises safety, easy maintenance and efficient
crushing performance.
Unlike other gyratory crushers, which require workers to get in
underneath the crusher to perform maintenance tasks – a high-risk
operation – the TS range allows service and maintenance to be
carried out from above. The eccentric assembly, bushings and
hydraulic piston are easily accessible and removed through the top
of the crusher, hence the name ‘Top Service’. Not only is this much
safer than the bottom service crusher design, it also increases the
speed and simplicity of maintenance work, reducing costs and
boosting availability.
In addition to safety and the reduced maintenance burden, the TS
gyratory crushers are built for strength, durability and the
ability to adapt to the various requirements of mine
operators.
Harder, better, faster, stronger The Mark V design builds on these
strengths and adds even more power, capacity and flexibility. We
have re-engineered the entire crusher to deliver advanced crushing
efficiency with only a nominal increase in footprint.
It’s also safer than ever before. The all-new self-aligning
main-shaft negates the need for service personnel to be working
underneath a heavy suspended load. Previously the 100+ tonne
fully-dressed main-shaft had to be guided into the eccentric
assembly by hand. With this new development the shaft aligns
automatically, dramatically reducing risk.
To offer even greater potential to optimise performance, the TSUV
is digitally enabled – giving you more control over operations and
availability. This is a game-changer. The ability to make fine
adjustments to wear compensation, track equipment trends and
instantly detect crusher obstructions will enable increased uptime,
optimum equipment life and a significantly reduced risk of un-
planned downtime. Additionally, our integrated control system
incorporates all the required safety and interlock features to keep
your operators safe.
Mining has a long history – and so do we. Our commitment to
optimising the comminution process with quality crushers dates back
to the Traylor and Fuller-Traylor gyratory crushers of
the early 1900s. Since then, our crushers have continuously
withstood the harshest demands of the world’s mines and rock
quarries. Through constant improvements in engineering, we
have
earned our place as a proven and preferred crusher supplier
throughout the industry.

We understand that to cope with new challenges, you need new
technology. It’s why we re-engineered the entire TSUV, rather than
adding features to the previous model. Every part of the Mark V has
been strengthened and improved to give you greater crushing
efficiency and a low total cost of ownership (TCO). We’ve instilled
all our knowhow and process experience into the design to bring
you:
Higher power – Improved power handling capabilities allow you to
process more material as ore yields decline, enabling you to remain
competitive. The crusher footprint has only nominally increased but
maximum power handling is now up to 1500 kW.
Higher capacity – Improved capacity throughputs make use of the
additional power available without compromising on setting or
product size. You get the same product – but more of it.
Optimised speed – We’ve optimised eccentric speeds to ensure
maximum throughput without incurring excessive wear rates. This is
a finely balanced equation, based on extensive R&D work, which
together with the new service and operational features, gives you
the lowest possible cost per tonne of material processed.
Enlarged feed opening – For those customers with ‘slabby’ or
‘blocky’ materials, we have introduced extended topshells to give
you larger feed openings. These are optional for all machines in
the TSUV range.
Liner optimisation service – This service ensures wear maintains
the desired nip angle, which keeps power at a constant range and
thus optimises throughput.
Easier maintenance – Up to 74% reduction in planned maintenance
time means more time in production, increasing productivity and
boosting your bottom line.
Integrated controls – Our advanced control system includes KPI
dashboards, built-in trending, power and PSD wear compensation,
automatic lowering of the mantle and camera/laser detection of
oversize boulders and bridging. These are significant developments
that will enable you to increase reliability and reduce the risk of
an unscheduled stop.
As ore grade decreases and the industry seeks to crush ever harder
material, crushers have to rise to the challenge. You need more
power to handle greater capacities. You need the
kind of hard-wearing, durable system that can manage ore with a
BCWi into the 50s. But more power typically means more wear and you
can’t afford more outages – you need less.
With great power comes greater throughput
Raising the bar Are you crushing large lump ore or “blocky”
material? Our optional High-Flow Spider features a raised design
that increases the feed height under the spider arms by as much as
200 mm, allowing plenty of room for larger material to enter the
crushing chamber.
While bridging can never be fully eliminated, this option, together
with our oversize feed particle size detection system, ensures it
is minimised and your crusher maintains maximum availability.
+7% Greater speed
+10% Increased capacity
8 9TSUV Gyratory Crushers TSUV Gyratory Crushers
In this latest generation, speed is increased by a further 7%.
This, in conjunction with the larger mantle diameter, equates to
approximately a 10% capacity increase – and not at the expense of
setting.
Higher power handling – maximum power now up to 1500 kW Rotable top
and middle shells as standard Self-aligning main-shaft as standard
on all TSUV models
(a significant advantage to health, safety and availability)
Digitally enabled controls and condition monitoring Designed to
crush even the hardest ore
1. The bar-type spider’s four-bolt design reduces the amount of
time required for removal. Further, its rectangular design reduces
the overall amount of space necessary during maintenance.
2. Spiral bevel gearing allows for larger installed power on the
crushers.
3. The countershaft assembly is designed to allow for fine
adjustment of gear mesh during installation. It includes
self-adjusting bearings that require no maintenance or
pre-load.
4. Eccentric and hydraulic piston now accessed from the top, are
serviced faster, more efficiently, and safer than a traditional
bottom service gyratory crusher.
5. Threadless main-shaft design improves strength by minimising
peak stresses during demanding crushing operations.
6. One-piece integral main-shaft standard on all sizes eliminates
core shrink fit and reduces any loose core downtime.

11. Pressurised dust seal minimises particle ingress and ensures
that oil stays clean of contaminants.
12. Bottom shell view ports allow maintenance personnel to view
crusher shell liners and check for wear.
13. We utilise identical oil in both the hydraulic and lubrication
systems, ensuring that if cross-contamination occurs there is no
need to flush out the system.
10 11TSUV Gyratory Crushers TSUV Gyratory Crushers
Get out from under the crusher Standard gyratory crushers require
personnel to get beneath the crusher, a confined and hazardous
workspace where they are at risk of:
Falling debris from above Higher exposure to pinch points Increased
exposure to electrical hazards Inhaling harmful dust Exposure to
noxious gases
When risk becomes reality, the consequences are devastating. Why
take the chance when there is a better, safer option?
When we introduced the 'Top Service' model in 2006, we became the
first supplier on the market to prioritise safety in this way.
Still, no other vendors offer a fully top service option.
The TSUV takes that commitment to safety a step further with the
creation of the self-aligning main-shaft. No more flawed installs
and damaged seals and, most importantly, no need for service
personnel to work under dangerous suspended loads.
Reducing risk Even in the best conditions, maintenance is still a
hazardous job. So we’ve worked hard to streamline performance and
optimise operating conditions to minimise the need for
maintenance.
Advanced controls monitor the crusher and track trends to help you
develop a more proactive maintenance strategy, putting an end to
those stressful, dangerous unplanned shutdowns.
Fine adjustments for wear compensation ensure you get the most from
your wear liners, extending the time between maintenance
stops.
Automatic detection of oversize boulders and bridging reduces the
need for manual inspection.
Safer operating as standard The latest integrated control system
includes multiple OEM design interlocks to ensure the safety of
both people and machinery. The system allows you to set user access
levels to operating parameters and keeps a log of user events. The
easy-to-use configuration and local language options simplify
operations and help avoid mis communications. In fact, the TSUV’s
control system operates at the highest industrial safety standard
for E-Stop and communications.
All of these things combine to give you simpler maintenance that
reduces planned downtime by up to 74% compared to previous
generation models. That’s a significant reduction in your risk
factor.

Digitalisation enables performance optimisation
From wear compensation to particle size distribution, digital
technologies are driving performance improvements.
Built in tools extend liner life Innovative new tools enable you to
get the maximum return on your liners:
Power Wear Compensation: Fine adjustments for wear compensation
calculated with power targets and tonnage.
PSD Wear Compensation: Fine adjustments for wear compensation
calculated with PSD targets with feedback from camera/laser
scanner.
Feed Camera/Laser Option: Detection of oversize boulders and
bridging will alert you to take early/fast decisions.
Plus, intelligent controls automatically adjust the mantle position
setpoint, raising it to compensate for liner wear and lowering it
in response to over-pressure or over-power events.
Beyond providing high quality equipment and parts, we partner with
you in all aspects of your plant process, including equipment
loading, screening efficiency, product size needs and material
handling. Our process experts assist in designing, installing,
commissioning, and auditing your plant to ensure it keeps operating
at peak performance.
Monitoring input and output It’s not only the machinery that needs
monitoring – the rocks are important too. The TSUV can also include
three systems to analyse crusher input and output, which help to
avoid blockages, bridging and reduced throughput.
The Gyratory Crusher Oversize Feed Particle Size system uses
cameras to analyse the particle size of each truck load prior to it
entering the crusher. The system interlocks with the tipping signal
light to prevent tipping of oversize rock into the crusher.
The Gyratory Crusher Bridging Particle Size System monitors the
crusher feed opening using camera equipment and a particle size
analyser to detect bridging/blocking. If a blockage is detected, an
alert is sent to the operator and the tipping signal is triggered
to prevent further feed entering the crusher.
The Gyratory Crusher Particle Size – Product Belt Camera System
analyses the output of the crusher to check the reduction ratio is
as expected. If output is oversized, the crusher gap is
automatically adjusted.
Imbalanced crusher loading resulting in poor production
Properly balanced crusher loading resulting in maximum
production
Our team will evaluate the following typical concerns and help
deliver the best solution:
Liner profile wear Crusher load sharing Oversize and waste material
Recirculating load Wear rates Power draw
The end result? A productivity and profitability boost thanks to
improvements in product quality, wear part utilisation and
equipment availability.

Dedicated design capabilities
Our materials handling engineering team now brings seamless
capability to design stations dedicated to the 'Top Service' TSUV
crushers.
From fixed stations to traditional truck-fed semi-mobile stations
to low profile semi-mobile stations, we have the solution you
need.
The TSUV crushers offer benefits that no other crushers can offer
when you consider the following:
Despite their higher power handling capabilities, TSUV crushers
offer the lowest dynamic loadings in their class. This leads to
less steelwork, less civils and therefore no need to compromise on
the crusher you really need for the job at hand.
The TSUV range greatly decreases the maintenance cycle and negates
the need and additional height required for a costly eccentric
maintenance cart.
Our complete range of TSUV Gyratory Crushers can be mounted on
fixed and semi-mobile steel plants, giving you the freedom and
flexibility to design your plant the way you want to.
Not enough height to go direct dump? Opt for the “Low-Profile”
configuration, which can accommodate your civil constraints.

TLC for primary crushers
The team at FLSmidth has been working with a number of customers
recently to eliminate unexpected crusher shutdowns and to optimise
equipment reliability. Manager of Life Cycle Services Charlie
Madsen was happy to share this knowledge. “Planned major
maintenance predominantly means liner changeouts,” he said. “But
generally, the crusher will be shut down for two mantle changes and
one concave change per year. Mantle changes can be done in
approximately 24 hours and a concave with a mantle change in four
to seven days depending on factors such as mine location and site
specifics.
“These are characteristics that can change over the lifespan of a
pit or orebody, requiring constant attention to liner material
choice and profiles. This ensures wear patterns and wear loss are
kept at the optimum level and secures lowest cost per metric ton in
operation,” Madsen said. “FLSmidth mitigates wear rates by using
different types of manganese in its liners, upgrading to chrome-
moly where necessary. White iron can also be advantageous.”
Combining this with the optimisation of liner profiles,
throat/chamber design and operations on-site for feed
characteristics tends to give the most successful result, and
changes in the above can extend liner profiles and throughput over
a lifetime by up to 500,000 mt in some cases. This is obviously
welcomed by the customer as downtime is cut and maintenance costs
reduced. Madsen explained: “There are an abundance of checks that
should be carried out fully and thoroughly in preventative
maintenance inspections and with a computerised maintenance
management system (CMMS). These, in combination with customer
training, can reduce maintenance times and cut unplanned failures.
It also enables more consistent scheduling of work activities,
planned shutdowns and parts supply.”
“Hydroset replacements are planned/recommended anywhere between one
and five years, again depending on site-related variations. General
maintenance is hard to time, but an educated estimate would be
something along the lines of three to four days every half year.
Maintenance schedules are planned through information, data, and
trending of wear and components.” Rate of wear and wear
characteristics are typically determined by the orebody type, work
index, abrasiveness and fracture rate, as well as throughput.
Maintaining the open side setting (OSS) is typically done by
operators with a control system that shows the main shaft position
at all times. FLSmidth’s automation team has designed new software
that can carry out optimisation of the main shaft position based
upon a number of instruments that maximise throughput, power/ wear
and final product. “Calibration of the main shaft is an infield
exercise, as manual verification and measurements have to be
conducted in order to calibrate and scale the electronic
equipment,” said Madsen. “By optimising the main shaft position, we
create a more effective and constant wear profile, which allows the
end user to get full wear out of liners.”
FLSmidth is developing a comprehensive maintenance management
system for its Excel-Raptor cone and gyratory crusher lines. “We
also we have a self-aligning main shaft, which improves on
installation times, and more importantly, safety and suspended
loads,” Madsen added. “We are also the only OEM with a fully top
service gyratory, which improves on maintenance downtime and saves
on building and construction designs and sizes.” The team has
designed rotable shell segments to reduce concave liner changeout
times, and the spider removal jacks are threaded into the shell
rather than being free standing to reduce manual handling
requirements and improve ergonomic positioning for staff.
Charlie Madsen, Manager of Life Cycle Services, FLSmidth spoke to
Engineering & Mining Journal about our approach to preventive
maintenance.
